A microsoft office question.?

[Monique J]

Someone emailed me some powerpoints that I need to see but he used the newer Microsoft Office 2007. I have the older 2003 version and everytime I try to open it, it says that I need the 2007 program. Is there anyway I can still open the powerpoints without buying the new Microsoft?

Ask him to re-send them saving them in a PowerPoint 2000-2003 format.

You can get the updated Power Point Viewer at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...isplaylang=en. You won't be able to edit it, but you will be able to view it.
